Always in Beta
When you’re continually chasing perfection, you’ve always got work to do. From our Pro-Winder to Phosphor Bronze and Fusion Twist, we are endlessly looking for new ways to improve your play.
The Tech behind Tone
All of our strings and accessories are the result of decades of advances, all aimed at helping you play with the best tone possible.
TAKING STRINGS FURTHER
Every string we make brings together innovations, patents and proprietary designs to achieve new levels of quality.
Premium Wire Drawing
We couldn’t find string wire consistent enough for our needs, so we learned how to make our own. The machines we created are now the most sophisticated in the world, and right down the hall from our factory floor.
NY Steel
A high-carbon steel core made in NY and at the heart of our premium strings like XS, XT and NYXL, NY Steel brings incredible pitch stability and durability.
Fusion Twist
Invented to prevent slack in the twist to keep you in tune and ensure maximum tuning stability. Higher break strength also means you can keep sounding good night after night.
Hex Core Construction
We engineered the hexagonal core to better grip the wrap wire back in the 80s. Since then, we’ve watched it become the new standard for superior dimensional stability, durability and precise intonation.
The most innovative string ever created
XS GUITAR STRINGS
Our founder challenged the D’Addario Lab of engineers and designers to create the world’s longest-lasting string. Their response was a string with an impossibly thin coating, smooth-never-slippery feel, and unmatched tone.
